About the Guyana flag emoji
Flag of Guyana, the Golden Arrowhead, a yellow arrow edged in white and a red triangle edged in black on green. The emoji is ๐ฌ๐พ. The characters behind the Guyana flag are the regional indicators for G and Y, spelling GY; two such letters in a row always render as one flag: Guyanaโs. Windows has no flag artwork, so there GY appears as the letters G Y. Guyana (GY) joined the flag set in Emoji 1.0 (2015); GY renders on every major platform except Windows. Copy GY from the card; the flag emoji hub groups Guyana with the other South America flags, such as Brazil, listed beside Guyana.
